Question:

How to Download Email Headers? Simple way to Decrypt?

Jul 20 '16 at 19:57

Is there any fast way to get all headers of email (Chilkat.Email) ?
If I am looking to the Header property it contains raw header (they can be encrypted in Q or B string) Is there any simple way to get it decrypted?


Answer

The top-level MIME header is never encrypted, so no need to worry about decrypting the header to get the subject, From, To, etc.

Both the Chilkat.Mailman (for POP3) and Chilkat.Imap API's have methods for downloading headers-only..
